Ayer empecé con la maratón de los objetos más llamativos del catálogo Messier en Insta. Los publicaré por acá también en forma de hilo, porque son tan hermosos que nadie se los debería perder.
Cabe añadir q mucha parte de la info se la debo al gran @alex_riveiro.
!Comenzamos! 🌌

South American teams are so hard to play against, not because they’re necessarily better than you but because they force you to play their game, not yours. They don’t care if they only have 30% possession or if people call their football ugly. Their entire focus is on winning every duel, staying compact, frustrating you, and making every single attack feel like you’re running into a brick wall.

Tactically, they’re incredibly disciplined. The distances between the defenders and midfielders are so small that there are barely any passing lanes through the middle. If you want to break them down, you’re usually forced wide, and even then they’re aggressive in the box and dominant in aerial duels. They defend every cross like it’s the last minute of a World Cup final.

They’re also masters of controlling the rhythm of a game. They’ll slow it down when they need to, speed it up when there’s space, commit tactical fouls, win cheap free kicks, and make every restart take just a little longer. It can be frustrating to watch if you’re supporting the other team, but it’s an art they’ve perfected over decades.

And then there’s the mentality. South American teams genuinely believe they can beat anyone. Whether it’s Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay, or Colombia, they embrace suffering. They’ll defend for 90 minutes if that’s what the match demands, and when that one counterattack or set piece arrives, they’ll take it without hesitation.

That’s why European possession-heavy teams often struggle against them. Having 70% of the ball means nothing if you can’t create clear chances. South American sides are comfortable without possession because they know football matches are decided by moments, not possession statistics. They’re patient, ruthless, and incredibly difficult to break down when they commit to a defensive game plan.

3.06 - Vinícius Júnior's xG against Scotland was the highest by a player in a FIFA World Cup match on record (since 1966).

8 shots (2 goals)
3.06 xG

Destruction.

[Fabrizio Romano @FabrizioRomano]

🚨⚪️ Marc Cucurella on playing with Vini Jr: “I do NOT care if he doesn't track back, or doesn't help defensively”.

“Let him stay fresh ALL GAME so he can score goals, I will do ALL THE DIRTY WORK for him”.

🚨Ronaldo Nazário:

"Se inventaron una declaración FALSA donde yo supuestamente dije que Messi era el mejor de la historia"

"Mi coordinador de medios investigó y se lo inventó el periódico catalán Mundo Deportivo. Para mí, Messi es el quinto mejor"

[Mr Campbell @campbur]

@C3POdemos @AlbertOrtegaES1 Pero en el primer clásico de Liga le pitaron falta a Vini en una jugada similar donde iba a rematar. Ahí qué fue entonces?

Asumamos algo inevitable: este es un RÉCORD IMPOSIBLE de superar. Sólo se puede igualar. Es físicamente improbable jugar y marcar en SIETE mundiales. ¿A qué edad debes empezar y acabar una carrera deportiva para permanecer, al menos, 24 años en la máxima élite? NO WAY.

Si tuviera que devolver el tiempo, mil veces te volvería a elegir como mi ídolo.

Tú le diste sentido a nuestra pasión por el fútbol.

Eres y serás de los más grandes, aunque los ingratos no sean capaces de reconocerlo.

Hazlo de nuevo, @Cristiano.

‼️ RÉCORD HISTÓRICO ‼️

Gol de Cristiano Ronaldo. Se convierte en el PRIMER jugador en TODA la historia de la Copa del Mundo que marca en SEIS ediciones diferentes del torneo:

🇵🇹 2006, 2010, 2014, 2018, 2022 y 2026

Ríndete ante la grandeza de las verdaderas leyendas.

🚨 Andrea Pirlo on the difference between Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi at this age:

🗣️ “You cannot compare Ronaldo and Messi at this stage of their careers because of how and where they play. Messi has always been a playmaker who can operate across the attacking line, and his profile allows him to influence games through both goals and assists.

Ronaldo was an explosive winger in his younger years, creating and scoring in equal measure. Later, he became a permanent striker, which naturally reduced his involvement in build-up play.

Today, Messi can still dictate games from deeper areas, while Ronaldo’s main responsibility is finishing chances. Defenders focus heavily on denying him space because they know how dangerous he is in front of goal. That is why, at this age, football tends to favour Messi’s style more than Ronaldo’s.”
